Motaz Azaiza became a global icon for his fearless photojournalism during Israel’s assault on Gaza. In this exclusive MintCast interview, host Mnar Adley speaks with Azaiza about surviving the onslaught, becoming a voice for his people, and why documenting war crimes has never been more urgent.
Since October 2023, Israel has killed more than 200 journalists. Azaiza’s powerful images cut through the fog of war, inspiring millions and showing the world the human cost of Israel’s actions. He reflects on the emotional toll, the global response, and his mission to raise funds for UNRWA as Gaza starves under siege.
